Only 6 more days!!! Woo hoo! And I just saw on Melody's newly updated blog that her and Matt are in Mexico now! We missed you by a week! No news yet on being pregnant. We kind of avoided things last month so I wouln't be throwing up in Cancun. Hmm...what else. Alias has officially gone to rest. I am doing better than expected. Some were worried for me, but I am pulling through. Take every day, one day at a time..right? Isn't that what they say. I think I am already past denial and anger and into the accepting stage. :) Well folks, I should post again before my trip, but in case I don't, hasta luego!!! Posted by Picasa

And here she is!!! Last night's dance recital was a success. No crying, no stage fright...atleast not from Sophie! She was a star - to me and 9 other family members who drove hours to come just to see her dance. Boy is she loved! The funniest thing was after it was all over, Sophie and I were walking out of the auditorium, and she looked up at me with her big brown eyes and said, "Mom, I love the stage!" If ever there were a question whether or not she has Stratton blood, the arguement may finally be put to rest! Stratton, through and through! :)  Posted by Picasa

Mattie, watching from the sidelines of dance class, wishing she could be in there! She is Sophie's BIGGEST fan! Posted by Picasa

Only two more days left and the big day will be here! That is right folks, Sophie's first dance recital is approaching quickly! All the months of dance class are coming to an end. Sophie has come a long way. I used to have to bribe her with candy, happy meals, and all sorts of stuff to get her out on the dance floor and dance, and now she is a pro! My entire family minus Uncle Steve, is coming down for it! The Stratton's are proud, very very proud!!! As are the Schlesingers. Saturday.....here we come!!!! Posted by Picasa

Happy Mother's Day (1 day late) to me and every other mother that reads this! I look forward to the years that Mother's Day will actually be a day of rest and relaxation for me. Being a mom of two toddlers on Mother's Day isn't all that different than any other day of my life, except that I get really cute homemade cards from them! Matthew was quite helpful yesterday though. He handled all of the kid issues and tried to give me a break as much as possible. I love being a mom, and more than that, I love being Sophie and Mattie's mom! Posted by Picasa

We have this great Farmers Co-op in town, it is huge! I have never been before, but Matthew has gone for some supplies here and there. So we stopped by the other day and they have these bins of baby chicks and ducklings. The girls were in heaven!!! I have to admit I enjoyed it a lot as well. I just think it is sad that these animals are so adorable when they are little and then grow up to be these ugly, dirty birds. Good thing our children don't end up like that..cute as kids and ugly as adults! :) Posted by Picasa

Last week I braved Wildlife Safari by myself with the girls. It was pretty fun. The animals were not to exciting that day though. Hmmm...I just noticed that Sophie is a little lamb, and Mattie is a little goat! It fits their personalities! Too funny! Posted by Picasa

Only a few episodes left and I will be going into Alias withdrawls. I have enjoyed it while it has lasted. I think Sydney Bristow is my altar ego! :) Posted by Picasa

Hurray! We have booked our vacation to Cancun!!! I cannot tell you how excited I am. AND how sore my stomach muscles are for doing crunches to get bathing suit ready! This has been GREAT motivation to really start excercising and eating better. I only have one month (less than now!) to get in better shape than I am now. Have I mentioned it is just Matthew and I!!! We haven't gotten a get-away like this since our honeymoon. And our honeymoon was nothing like this, it was in cold, Victoria B.C.! Romanitc yes, but not paradise by any means! So, let the tanning begin. Posted by Picasa
